Exclamation Fear

I saw this this weekend as well. I must say it was very thought provoaking. I think he is implying that the gun violence is born out of fear. But he doesn't quite know where the fear comes from. The racism comes from fear, the violence comes from fear. I think this fear is at the core of Americanism. People are afraid of not having the things that they feel will define them (House,car money, "security", etc.). This drives our consumerism, which is the basis of capitalism. The answer to this fear, I think is a stronger sense ofself and purpose.
What do you guys think?
